		<description><![CDATA[I cowered at the revelation that our soul brother number one, musical architect Don Cornelius, whose funky good time was always buoyed by a distinguished gentleman aesthetic, had taken his own life.

		<description><![CDATA[Going Down 6/12/10: Sol Fusion is a cool blend of artists, musicians, creative cuties, down-home homies and on-point crowd controllers such as DJ Kemit &#038; DJ Salah Ananse. While "industry" events are often marred by "velvet rope" shenanigans, this "back up off the wall" affair brings back the days when you left the jam sweaty unafraid to be yourself.  Only here will FELA, BBD, Run DMC, dead prez, Cyndi Lauper, Alicia Myers, Eurythmics, Biggie Smalls, Erykah Badu, and Michael McDonald be on the same playlist.
